Sadly, many people are unaware their pictures contain personal data because seeing it requires a special metadata viewer. Sharing images that contain you personal data is not safe.

Pixelgarde Photo Privacy Editor gives you control over your personal data, so you can be safe when sharing photos online. Our patent pending technology lets you view, edit and remove personal information, without turning off geotagging or changing original photos.

You can also organize pictures by adding titles, authors, website addresses, a watermark, etc. Pixelgarde Photo Privacy Editor is compatible with all social networks, including email and text, so sharing photos is fast, easy and safe. It’s also Free!

Types of metadata - The type of metadata your mobile phone, camera or editing program records can be simple or very detailed depending on its design and age.

Newer mobile phones and cameras can automatically record your name, location (aka. a geotag) date, time, etc., and save it into each photo as EXIF metadata.

This metadata is useful for keeping photos organized, but if you don’t remove it before sharing them, your personal information gets shared too. You should be able to control your personal data when sharing photos online, especially pictures taken of children and your home!

Some mobile phones have settings that limit the metadata they record, like geotags for example.

But, turning off GPS isn’t practical because then you don’t get to keep your geotags and it doesn’t remove other private data. Pixelgarde Photo Privacy Editor is the best option for controling your personal data when sharing photos online.
